Deconfiguring geographic mirroring

 

If you no longer want the capability to use geographic mirroring for a specific disk pool or disk pool group, you can select to Deconfigure Geographic Mirroring. If you deconfigure geographic mirroring, the system stops geographic mirroring and deletes the mirror copy of the disk pools on the nodes in the mirror copy site.

The disk pool must be offline to deconfigure geographic mirroring.

To deconfigure geographic mirroring, follow these steps:

1. In iSeries™ Navigator, expand My Connections (or your active environment).

2. Expand the System i™ you want to examine,Configuration and Service > Hardware > Disk Units > Disk Pools.

3. Right-click the production copy of the Disk Pool you want to deconfigure and select Geographic Mirroring > Deconfigure Geographic Mirroring.

To complete the process, update your cluster configuration, as follows:

• Remove the nodes associated with the mirror copy from the switchable hardware group recovery domain.

• Remove the site name and data port IP addresses from the remaining nodes in the cluster.
